Cartier Tank
The Cartier Tank was designed in 1917, its shape inspired by the tanks of the First World War. The Tank Louis Cartier in gold on a leather strap is the most original version, worn by film stars and presidents alike. A pre-owned Tank is an elegant way to own a Cartier watch in its most classic form. Every Cartier Tank we sell is inspected and comes with a 24-month warranty.

Pre-owned Cartier Tank – what we check
Our watchmaker opens every watch and measures its rate on a timegrapher. We match the serial and reference numbers with the papers, check that the dial, hands and bezel are original, and measure the case edges to see whether the watch has been over-polished. You get the result in writing.
Buying a used Cartier Tank – what to check
- Gold case: the Tank Louis Cartier is yellow gold, which is soft. Check the side bars for dents and rounded edges from polishing.
- Crown: the crown carries a blue cabochon. Make sure it is present, undamaged and the right shade.
- Dial: look at the Roman numerals and the railway minute track under a loupe. Cartier hides a small signature in one numeral on many dials.
- Movement: the W1529756 uses the hand-wound calibre 8971 MC. Wind it fully and check the rate and the winding feel.
- Strap and buckle: the leather strap is easy to replace, but the original gold buckle should be in the set.
